Abstract: The Western Catchment Management Authority (CMA) works with local people to improve the management of natural resources. In line with the government’s ‘Caring for Our Country’ priorities we believe that raising awareness and providing information about Aboriginal perspectives on natural resource management will improve the management of our natural resources. Aboriginal people have much to teach today’s land managers and the wider community about caring for our country. Here we will present a DVD that is part of a larger project to document Aboriginal land management practices and cultural knowledge. Our aim is to make this knowledge accessible for current and future generations.
